Ralph Fiennes captures the raw physicality and brilliance of Rudolf Nureyev, whose escape to the West stunned the world at the height of the Cold War. Nureyev is played by world-class ballet performer Oleg Ivenko.
With his magnetic presence, Rudolf Nureyev emerged as ballet’s most famous star, a wild and beautiful dancer limited by the world of 1950s Leningrad. His flirtation with Western artists and ideas led him into a high-stakes game of cat and mouse with the KGB at the height of the Cold War.
With a drum-tight script by David Hare, 'White Crow' offers a thrilling insight into Nureyev's dangerous defection, masterminded by the dancer’s great friend, 21 year-old Parisian Clara Saint. With an astonishing finale at Le Bourget airport in Paris, Nureyev leaps to freedom, and in so doing defines his destiny.

Synopsis

An experimental horror short that explores the modern disease becoming known as consumption. It follows successful product photographer Anna, who aims for a life filled with perfect moments, inspired by a constant stream of social media feeds, sponsored blogs and fairytales playing on her computer. Yet whenever alone Anna's beautifully curated life is taken over by a growing hunger, and she starts hearing disturbing organic sounds. She controls this by eating pretty things, yet the hunger and sounds become inescapable, until even the men she dates become consumable objects.
Critiquing the insidious influence of advertising and corporations that has seeped into our digital lives. Made of endlessly looping cinemagraphs, it subverts a trendy online medium in order to reflect the impossibility of attaining everlasting perfection, something that we are socially conditioned to strive for. The film contains many hidden references, such as the myth of King Midas, pro-Ana online support groups and the Algonquin cannibal spirit Wetiko - a metaphor for society’s dopamine addiction and the inner void it creates.
Anna's story also exists as an endlessly looping series of perfect moments here: instagram.com/annaeatspretty
